We have in-house neonatal nurse practitioners to give your baby exceptional care 24 hours a day.

The level 3 NICU is on the third floor of Jackson-Madison County General Hospital. Level 3 NICUs care for babies born at less than 32 weeks or babies born with critical illness at all gestational ages. We offer a full range of respiratory support and advanced imaging.

Neonatal Follow-Up Clinic

Fridays at 779 West Forrest Avenue, Jackson(731) 541-9551

Babies born prematurely are at risk for developmental problems. We believe the best follow-up care begins by finding developmental needs as early as possible. Together, we can give your child the support to make a lasting difference.

Because the clinic sees neonatal graduates one day a week, there is less risk of babies being exposed to potentially harmful germs or illnesses. Families in the clinic meet with physical therapy, occupational therapy, and dietary counseling at each visit.
